27、loma.CA new study focused on birds examines how the movements of rivers in the Amazon have contributed to that areas exceptional biological diversity. The research team, led by the American Museum of Natural History, found that as small river systems change over time, they spur the evolution of new
28、species. The findings also reveal previously unknown bird species in the Amazon that are only found in small areas next to these dynamic river systems, putting them at high risk of extinction.The lowland rainforests of the Amazon River basin harbor(藏匿) more diversity than any other ecosystem on the
29、planet. It is also a globally important biome(生物群落)containing about 18 percent of all trees on Earth and carrying more fresh water than the next seven largest river basins combined. Researchers have long wondered and hotly debated how the Amazons rich biodiversity arose and accumulated.“Early evolut
30、ionary biologists like Alfred Russel Wallace noticed that many species of primates and birds differ across opposite riverbanks in the Amazon,” said the studys lead author Lukas Musher. “ Moreover, accumulating geological evidence has suggested that these rivers are highly dynamic, moving around the
31、South American landscape over relatively short time periods, on the order of thousands or tens of thousands of years.”To investigate how the movement of rivers across the landscape has influenced the accumulation of bird species in the Amazon, the researchers sequenced the genomes(基因组)of six species
32、 of Amazonian birds.Because these rivers move around the landscape at different time scales, their movements can have varying outcomes for bird species: when river rearrangements occur quickly, populations of birds on each side can combine before theyve had time to differ; when river changes happen

The speed of river movement. D. The amount of the genomes.DMany livestock farmers in the western world are becoming worried
36、 by a longer-term threat to their income from the growing popularity of vegetarian diets. Here comes the question whether to eat meat or not. Before airing our view, we should consider seriously the three reasons that vegetarians give for refusing animal products. The easiest point to argue against
37、is that eating meat is unhealthy. Nothing is healthier than a varied diet, including fiber, vegetable, fruit and meat. Although studies show that eating red and processed meat may raise the risk of some cancers, it is important not to overstate the effect. This week, for example, Cancer Research UK
38、reported that eating an extra piece of bacon every day raised the risk of bowel cancer by 20 percent. But that means just eight extra (largely curable) cases in every 10,000 people over six years.Our treatment of farm animals is an issue that vegetarians find more troubling. A common view is that ra
39、ising animals in a small area cause unacceptable suffering. In this regard, agricultural authorities should take up the responsibility to enforce welfare standards that give each animal enough space to stand and move around comfortably. Also, consumers have an important role to play in improving con
40、ditions for farm animals. For example, the dislike of “battery hens” led to an EU ban in 2012 on keeping chickens in barren cages.The environmental impact of livestock farming is its greatest problem in a century. The UN Food and Agriculture Organization estimates that farmed animals account for 14.
41、5% of greenhouse gas emission. Although changes in grazing practices could substantially reduce the environmental impact of livestock farming, it will always use more resources than producing the same number of calories from plant crops. Meat production should focus on the worlds traditional grassla

43、Research UK in paragraph 2?A. To prove that eating too much meat is unhealthy.B. To persuade people out of eating too much meat. C. To show that eating meat is not as unhealthy as vegetarians think.D. To present the fact that eating too much bacon may cause cancer.34. Whats the authors attitude towa
44、rds raising animals in a small area?A. Favorable.B. Negative.C. Indifferent. D. Unclear.35. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?A. The changes in feeding practices.B. The challenges that livestock farming faces.C. The negative effects of livestock farming on the environment.D. The measures to re
45、duce the environmental impact of livestock farming.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Exams are an important type of assessment almost all students will need to undertake.
